| David LaRosa Feenix Films President & Founding Member |
| Dave grew up in a northern suburb of New Jersey. The 80's provided a wealth of creative stimulation for a child of that time and Dave was no exception. Often being picked for school plays or elected to Student Council positions throughout his education he soon entered College at Montclair State University and majored in political science. In Dave's junior year he re-discovered his love of acting and decided that a career in politics was not for him-although in the end he felt "what's the difference?" Finding structured education was not helping him become the actor he wanted to be, Dave left Montclair State and began seeking out teachers who he felt had a more practical and "real-world" approach to acting. Dave has studied with little known to well known teachers and has been able to fashion a tapestry of acting styles which he feels best suits his constant obsessive drive for "entertaining realism". Dave has appeared and been involved in a myriad of theater, film, and t.v. work -everything from musical theater to studio films. He has an undergraduate degree in Psychology with a minor in Political Science and is currently working towards his Masters Degree in Social Work at Fordham University. The more Dave was exposed to the acting world the more he grew restless and weary with the current industry standard and the nature of the business. He soon decided that he wanted to create a new way of doing things. Dave's first attempt was The Granite Theater Company which he founded and produced with Janine Laino in 2006 and 2007. However the idea of a film ensemble based on the theater ensembles of old grew more appealing to Dave due to the sense of community and sovereignty they seemed to instill in their members. He soon contacted Nick DeMatteo & Janine Laino, with Kate McGrath joining soon thereafter, and Feenix Films was formed. |
